Single Malt Scotch Collection

"Fresh and floral, with lively tropical fruit, honey, and vanilla. Gentle on the palate, with a slight syrupy texture to its malty foundation. Youthful, orange marmalade finish with a hint of spice. A pleasant, easy-going whisky." Whisky Advocate, 40% abv

Colour: Full, golden yellow. Nose: Almost incense-like, heather honey with a fruity softness, notes of pineapple, toast and cereal. Syrupy, lingering on the tongue like a liqueur. Body: Full bodied. Finish: The perfume characteristics become more spicy, with a bitter hint of Seville oranges in a decidedly dry finish. - Malt and Honey -

Highlands, Scotland- 21 years of aging has added dignity to Aberfeldy's distinctive heather honey softness. The taste lingers like a fine liqueur with its long, dry finish enhanced by notes of mature Seville oranges, spices, vanilla and sandalwood. Sip and savor this exclusive whisky.

"It's good to see an official distillery bottling of Clynelish in the U.S. This one is very true to the Clynelish style: fresh, appetizing, and very drinkable. Notes of brine, fruit (lemon-lime), and vanilla-accented malt, are the foundation of this whisky. Delicate seaweed, peat, exotic pepper and a hint of citrus rind bitterness entertain the palate throughout, all the way to its appetizingly briny, seaweed-tinged finish. Perhaps the definitive aperitif whisky." Whisky Advocate

Nose: zesty, mandarin, tangerine. Smoky. Palate: quite light, great clarity. orange, soft acidity. dry oak. mixed fruits, vanilla, leather. Finish: quite long, bitter sweetness developing, spicy oak. Great balance with perfectly rounded mouthfeel. 46%abv - Fresh Fruit and Vanilla -

"Half the whisky was aged in bourbon barrels, the other half in sherry casks. This whisky has always been on my short list as one of the finest, most affordable 12 year old single malts available. While the price may have gone up a bit (I remember when it was $20!), the quality remains the same. It’s fresh and lively. A well-balanced dram, with its tell-tale orange marmalade accompanied by tangerine, pineapple upside-down cake, vanilla-soaked barley, subtle brine, and caramel, all leading to a spicy cinnamon and dried vanilla finish. A nice 'every day' dram." Whisky Advocate

"Dalmore's 12-year-old expression has been matured in ex-bourbon and ex-Oloroso sherry casks. The portion of sherry casks in the mix has been increased compared to former times, making it much more complex.Aroma: Orange, dark plums, chocolate, marzipan." Whiskey.com

Palate: Citrus, almond, coffee, cinnamon. Finish: Orange, vanilla, plums, cinnamon. 40%abv - Dried Fruit and Nut -

Distiller Notes
2019 San Francisco World Spirits Completion Gold Medal Winner

Golden yellow. Clear and bright. Sweet, with toffee and popcorn aromas. Slightly nutty, with fresh green apples coming through. Clean. Green apples and grass, soft oak and a hint of sweet liquorice. Water brings linseed oil and almonds with a sweet and malty finish.

Fresh, vibrant, and beautifully complex. A clean, malty foundation accentuated by bright complex fruit, delicate spice, dried flowers, and gentle honeyed vanilla notes that linger on the palate. This is a wonderful whisky which is very versatile, but I can only imagine what it would taste like at 46% and unchill-filtered like the wood finish expressions." 93 Whisky Advocate

"Aromas: mandarin, lemon, apple, pear and peach trees. Add to this the scent of vanilla ice cream, and herbal notes of geranium and wild mint. Add water and release lemony bergamot, apricot and mandarin. Floral notes of geranium, sweet honeysuckle and piquant narcissus mix with mint and the herbal essence of eucalyptus, nutmeg and ginger. Taste: creamy vanilla slips like liquid silk over the tongue as peaches and cream, mandarins and lemons effervesce in the mouth. Finish: The charming sweetness of delicious juices is left on the tongue (Producer's Tasting Notes) 43% abv - Fresh Fruit and Vanilla -

"When compared to the 10 year old, this one’s richer, with darker fruit and more caramelized sweet notes, paired with accentuated dried wood spice, while the 10 year old is more vibrant and floral. Like the 10 year old, there’s good balance here." Whisky Advocate

Aroma: Characterised by notes of autumn harvest festival. A rich, resinous quality of nuts joins a crisp toffee sweetness of creme brulee, merging with creamy vanilla. Hints of vibrant oranges & lemons are found, followed by walnut, honeycomb and dates. With water, 18 Years Old reveals a rich oaken, balsamic character with notes of apricot and hazelnut. Palate: silky texture, rounded flavor with grapefruit & orange. Also, honey and creamy malt segue into a warm nuttiness of hazelnuts and walnuts from the Oloroso sherry casks in which the whisky is matured. Finish: Lingering with a subtle sweetness of dried fruit and the nutty dryness of sherry. (Producer's Notes) 43%abv - Malt and Honey -

Elegant but full bodied this whisky has spent ten years maturing in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being extra-matured for a further two years in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks from Jerez in Spain. Lasanta is Gaelic for warmth and passion, a reminder not just of the Spanish provenance of these Oloroso sherry butts, but also a reflection of this expression's lusciously soft texture and deep, enticingly sweet aroma.

Nose: Warm spices mix with smooth chocolate-covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee. Palate: Deliciously sweet sherry flavoured sultanas, orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch combine to create complex warm spices. Finish: Long and satisfying finish with spiced orange and chocolate covered hazelnuts. (Producer's Notes) - Rich Fruit and Spice -

"

Made in hand selected wine barriques from Sauternes, the most famous and ancient sweet wine growing region of France, this a whisky of rich, spicy and dessert-like flavours. Non chill-filtered for additional aroma and mouthfeel. An exercise in sweet-dry balancing. Aroma: lime and orange rind and dates laced with tantalising spices of coconut and nutmeg. Taste: ginger, nutmeg and toasted almonds bring a deep, warming taste interwoven with a syrupy lemon meringue and honeycomb middle. 46% abv - Rich Fruit and Spice -

"Finished (extra-matured, as they are now saying) in Sauternes casks. This expression replaces the Madeira wood finish. Beautiful sweet notes of honeycomb, sultana, apple pie, and white chocolate balanced by peach, coconut, and pineapple. Gentle background spice. The Sauternes cask adds extra weight and viscosity. The sweetness is not cloying, nor does it dominate the flavor profile. A good demonstration of the benefits of wood finishing." 89 pts Whisky Advocate

Glenmorangie Signet is blend of their oldest whisky and spirit matured in a selection of the world's finest casks. It is undoubtedly is the richest whisky in the Glenmorangie range. While the exact secrets of its production are known only to the distillery, the Signet's melting sweetness and explosive spiciness is due in part to their unique roasted 'chocolate' barley malt and the 'designer casks' made bespoke for Glenmorangie from American white oak. Non chill-filtered.

Aroma: A strong Aruba espresso fused with a treacly plum pudding, rich with sherry, and candied orange peel. Taste: A contrast of rich sweetness with an explosive crackle of sizzling spices and bitter mocha. Finish: A fresh spring-like breeze of mint with a bright citrus. (Producer’s Notes) 46%abv - Rich Fruit and Spice -

"This is unlike any Glenmorangie I’ve ever tasted. It’s a very textural, visceral whisky -- partly due to the chocolate malt, partly due to the casks used. It’s dark in color for a Glenmorangie, and viscous on the palate, with interwoven notes of dark chocolate, ground coffee, pot still rum, and spice (cinnamon, nutmeg), followed by dry polished leather, tobacco leaf, and a roasted walnut finish. This is a fun whisky, and earns bonus points for being unique in flavor." Whisky Advocate

The darkest and most intense whisky in their extra-matured range, Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban has spent 10 years maturing in American white oak casks, before being transferred into ruby port pipes from the Quintas or wine estates of Portugal. Extra maturation in these port pipes creates a complex balance of sweet and dry flavors and an intriguing contrast of smooth and crisp, cooling textures. Non chill-filtered for additional aroma and mouthfeel. Nose: dark mint chocolate, tangerines and Seville oranges mingle with sandalwood and walnut before giving way to a spicy finish of pepper and nutmeg. Palate: mint chocolate and walnuts envelop the palate like velvet, with additional notes of sweet Seville oranges. Finish: long-lasting silky aftertaste leaving dark chocolate mints and traces of orange. 46% abv - Rich Fruit and Spice -

"The sherry is very dominant and cloying, which is unfortunate. And I'm not crazy about the quality of the sherry (or perhaps even the wood it was aged in). I have great respect for both Highland Park and Binny's, but this is somewhat disappointing for a Highland Park." Whisky Advocate, 55% abv

Speyburn 10 years old single malt is matured in a combination of American Oak ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. Gold medal winner at the 2006 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the Speyburn 10 is an easy drinking crowd-pleaser. Color: pale gold with amber highlights. Nose: fresh, clean with a hint of lemon. Taste: medium bodied with hints of toffee & butterscotch and a long, sweet finish. 43%abv - Malt and Honey -

"Okay, how many of you have walked past this one thinking the price is just too crazily low for the liquid to be any good? How many have started your whisky life with this and then set it aside? Time to rethink. Speyburn, one of the forgotten distilleries of Rothes, is a charmer. Sweet and fragrant with notes of blossom and a little red fruit on the nose, the palate shows ginger, cream, and rhubarb. (Value Pick)" Whisky Advocate.

Appearance: Brilliant gold. Nose: Powerful peat-smoke with sea-water saltiness, the liquor of fresh oysters, a citrus sweetness. Palate: A rich dried-fruit sweetness with smoke and strong barley-malt flavors, warming and intense. At the back of the mouth is an explosion of pepper. Finish: long, warming peppery finish with an appetising sweetness. 45.8% abv - Maritime and Smokey -


"Fresh, vibrant. Appetizingly briny, with notes of seaweed, fishnets, lemongrass, smoke, and damp peat. A bed of light toffee provides contrast and balance. It finishes with a knockout punch: powerfully peppery and salty. This whisky remains a beautifully dynamic and bold whisky." Whisky Advocate

The Talisker Storm is made from whiskies of different vintages. The distillery managed to keep its typical character and also create an experience with strong and marine flavors. It bears no age statement but is stronger and more intense than the 10-year-old. Nose: mellow smokiness, briny, fresh clean notes, and pronounced pepper. Palate: medium bodied with tongue-coating sweetness, nutty smokiness and spice notes. The flavor is elegantly drawn out with a good balance between sweetness, smoke and salt, which is all the more evident when a little water is added. Finish: clean and of medium length, warming, with a lasting, smooth aftertaste, in which peaty burnt embers can be found. - Maritime and Smoky -
